Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid Chapter 169

Chapter 169 – 10cm Heels

TN: Chapter 168 was not related to the story, might come back later

Lin Xiao didn’t know what Rosie wanted, he was completely focused on the competition.

Today was officially the second day of Despair Island, everything was normal, although in the beginning, they encountered a short assault, everything was going rather swimmingly. They steadily gathered silver leaf fruits for points and they already amassed 18 points. It’s not considered much, but at least they have some.

Under Lin Xiao’s command, everyone worked low-profile and slowly headed towards the center of the island.

The silver leaf fruit was sparse in the surroundings of the island, even if you strained your eyes you would be lucky to find one or two in the shrubbery. The fruits were more concentrated closer to the center of the island. It’s said that there’s even a secret location at the center fill of silver leaf fruits, dubbed as the ‘Silver Vault’. Whoever discovers that treasure vault can get 100 points!

100 points could make up for around 5 fights, this was a considerable reward to any team. Points without any risk was better than a struggle to the death, so everyone headed towards the center of the island, Lin Xiao likewise.

They would inevitably encounter enemies as they head towards the center, the island didn’t have a large area, so 100 teams would eventually meet and there was no escape.

Although Lin Xiao’s strategy was to avoid battle, it didn’t mean he was afraid of it. He would never be careless against enemies they had to finish off (he would run behind everyone immediately, and order Caesar to start killing). The reason he doesn’t want to fight is because he doesn’t want to waste time on small fries (definitely not because he wanted to slack off).

Since they can’t avoid battle, then conserving energy became most important. Lin Xiao created a practical plan.

Called, operation handsome man. Obviously, Caesar Alex, the handsome fifth prince was the core of the plan.

Not only can he use his handsome face to attract little girls, under Lin Xiao’s use he can even turn it into a deadly weapon!

「 I’m Lombard Kingdom’s fifth prince, Caesar Alex! Put down your weapons and hand over your crystals you plebians, then I shall spare your lives! 」

That imposing line was something Lin Xiao specially designed for Caesar, he would shout it to anyone they meet, it was the first step of the operation.

In order to give Caesar an aura of superiority, and feel high and mighty so that the others couldn’t endure and have an urge to beat the shit out of him, Lin Xiao had to give him directions, from expression to actions, from posture to tone, even including hairstyle and his eyes, he adjusted all of it to an exceptional level.

Although Caesar was a block of wood, he was good sculptable timber. After some practice, he quickly grasped the quintessence of the line!

So, Caesar would shout that line whenever they encountered an enemy. Although he wasn’t too willing himself, it made him feel idiotic… please, which royalty would be so self-important?

Not fighting the enemy right when seeing them and even announcing one’s own identity and name, is he not afraid of getting beat to death?

But he had no choice, this was Lin Xiao’s orders. He lost to Lin Xiao during voting, so since Lin Xiao was the leader now, he could only obediently follow his orders.

So, once the enemy heard Caesar’s roar, plus his handsome face that looks like it needs a beating, they would typically respond like so.

“Prince? I don’t know, but the one I want to hit is a prince!”

“Is a prince really powerful? Do you know chaining?”

Then, Caesar would draw his sword, fuse magic and battle aura, forcing his energy out and blinding everyone!

The result was all their attention being attracted by Caesar!

This was the second step of the plan, to attract the enemy’s attention!

Actually, Caesar wasn’t actually using his moves, he was just following Lin Xiao’s instructions to pretend like he was, simply pushing a small portion of his energy outside his body just to create the light. This way, he wouldn’t waste any energy and would just be letting out light, like a LED. He was the brightest source of light on the island, and drew everyone’s attention towards him.

And so, they could advance to the last step of the plan.

Shiiiing.

The sound arrived before her.

The red high heels and green forest in the background contrasted, that beautiful image travelled about in the darkness like a demon, sheathing, unsheathing, blood-curdling screech, all in one breath.

While everyone was distracted by Caesar, Shen DaiYing would ambush them, and take out one of the enemies in the quickest amount of time and with the least cost.

Shen DaiYing’s fatal sword was the actual core of the plan!

According to the rules, a team loses if any one of the members were incapacitated. As long as Shen DaiYing succeeds, then all that’s left is plundering their points and calling the teachers for rescue.

Caesar is responsible for aggro, and Shen DaiYing is responsible for finishing off the monster, Lin Xiao and Rosie are responsible for cheering, and Elena is responsible for appearance and breasts. They each had their own respective roles and coordinated well.

With their plan, they successfully took care of two small fry teams, obtaining 20 some points, totalling to 43 points.

43 points was quite a bit, but Lin Xiao expressed that they still had to keep a low profile, because the more points they had the more likely they would become a target. Once they’re plundered, then their points would become a stepping stone for the winners.

“Hey Lin Xiao, are you listening to me?” Rosie closely followed behind him, but he didn’t respond even after she called him a few times, so she angrily punched his back.

“Uh, can you punch me two more times? I didn’t sleep well last night, my back hurts so much…” Lin Xiao lazily mumbled.

“Shut up, I have something to tell you!” Rosie wanted to complain, but suddenly lowered her voice, and looked around like a thief, afraid of being noticed.

Loran Academy was travelling in a line. Caesar at the forefront as the vanguard, Shen DaiYing closely behind as support. Lin Xiao was naturally last, responsible for… cheering, and the two beauties Elena and Shen DaiYing were in the center, safely protected.

In order so that her conversation with Lin Xiao wasn’t heard, Rosie had to purposely slow down.

Shen DaiYing and Caesar were in the front so they naturally couldn’t hear, but her movements couldn’t escape Elena’s eyes. However, she just told around and coldly glanced at him, then pretended she didn’t see anything.

Lin Xiao felt like he gained some sense of approval from Elena.

Strange.

Who cares which girls I talk to, you’re just a maid!

“So, Rosie what did you want to tell me?”

“Lin Xiao, you… did you already notice something?”

“Notice… what?”

“Stop playing dumb, about Shen DaiYing, your investigation has progressed, right?” Rosie squinted and closely followed behind Lin Xiao, like she was afraid he would escape.

Although Rosie already knew how strong Shen DaiYing was, this was the first time she saw her in a battle state.

Yesterday, she watched helplessly as Shen DiaYing cut someone’s stomach open, with a charming smile, her affectionate eyes, swinging the blood off her sword and reporting to Lin Xiao like she was taking credit.

What the? Aren’t the people from Great Qin empire too strange?

Look at the princess’s from Lombard Kingdom, Caesar’s sisters, they’re all graceful and enchanting females, how could the Great Qin Empire’s princess cut people while smiling, what a monster!

What kind of princess is that, a slaughter princess?

Through all these battles, Rosie became more curious of her two big mysteries!

The first mystery, why did Shen DaiYing have to wear high heels and black silk stockings?

According to her, it’s for training.

The stockings are for restricting the muscles in her legs, while helping to maintain her figure, it also speeds up muscle training, similar to the high heels.

Because high heels aren’t easy to move in, easy to lose balance when running and makes a loud sound, so she purposely wears high heels to train her pace and increase the control she has over her body. Precisely controlling her muscles and strength, and thus achieved the miracle of running in a forest with 10 cm heels.

The second mystery, what is the short sword that Shen DaiYing has never drawn used for?

They had already seen the long sword, Snow, countless of times. It was longer than Shen DaiYing’s arms, and looked weightless as she swung it, the silver-white sword cut through metal like butter. Shen DaiYing also cherished the sword, she was careful to not let blood stain it, and would swing off any blood on it immediately, not leaving any stains.

“Are you not curious at all? Wait… Lin Xiao, there’s only one reason you’re not surprised… could it be you already knew about her!”

Rosie pulled Lin Xiao’s sleeves, almost making him trip.
